[ Buns!! I was tempted to just leave the starter at that. Anyway, Escha has wandered into the waiting room in her exploration. She hovers by he doorway for a moment, just observing Magnus and. Processing that there are bunnies in here? Alright. Okay, cool.
Then she comes over to crouch down and try to pet one of them, and gives Magnus a smile. ]
They're so cute.

[ Ehehehehe bunnies are so soft. She kind of wants to rub one against her face, too... But she'll hold back when there's a Witness. Even if that Witness is already doing it. ]
That's right. And you're Taako's friend, Magnus!

[ she appreciates that we are ignoring that part. ]
... Yeah. It sounds like it was kind of... Unique compared to everyone else's? [ The afore-not-mentioned sex demons. But also that they got a kind of crap ending. Haha... ]

Is that unusual for you? Taako mentioned that he's died a bunch of times...
[ She doesn't really understand all this stuff because dying multiple times is wild, even for a murder game. But! ]
He really works hard, doesn't he?
[ never forget ]

... It must be strange having memories of a different "game" that he was in with you, and not having him remember. I don't know what I would do if the people I know here didn't remember what we'd gone through together.
[Nodding.]
Yeah. It's pretty weird? Especially because he won't tell me much about what happened in your game? [Quickly] Not that I'm asking for details. He'll tell me if he wants to later.
But I've known Taako for a crazy long time, and we've been through a lot of shit. So in some ways I guess it just feels like a weird blip.

[ Escha nods. ]
Mm. You just kind of deal with it and keep moving, huh? In my game, my partner was there with me, but he was from... A couple of years before when I had been taken from.
And even though it was strange, it was also just something I got used to. So it's a little different, but I guess I understand.

If you both get sent home safe and sound, I wonder if you'll both remember this at the same time. Or remember it at different times...?
[ Or just never both remember it? Hrm. She's getting too caught up in details. ]

Right. That's our number one priority.
[ ... ]
Do you believe them? That things will be different here, and that no one will have to kill?

They seemed shady to you?
[ She thought they seemed nice and forthcoming. Even if she didn't believe that this would be safe. Still! ]

If the rules aren't shady, then how come we don't just tell each other our teams! If it's just so the bonding activities are more fun, no big, right?
[Though quickly after saying that - ]
Don't really tell me yours, though, because I can't tell you mine. I promised Taako I wouldn't start telling people yet.

I won't.
[ But she does stop to consider something... ]
... If it was for bonding, wouldn't it make more sense for us to know who are teammates are?

[ Escha nods at that first part. That doesn't add up... ]
I can understand if they're frustrated at everyone getting mad if they really don't have any control over this or any bad intentions... But they should understand that it's frustrating for us, too.
There really shouldn't be any need for secrets at all.

It's - it's true that we may have bonded with the people we've gotten to know... But I still want to look out for everyone...!
We have a shared experience, even if we weren't all together!
